Here at Terratunnel, Inc. we offer professional drilling and construction services tailored to your needs. There are numerous projects that we have completed throughout Texas, Oklahoma, New Mexico, and other countries, such as our subsidiaries in Mexico and Panama.

Underground

We Have Three Levels of Drilling

We have equipment of 20 to 30 thousand pounds for the installation of high density polyethylene pipelines for industrial and commercial clients in need of optical fiber and electrical connections.

To ensure quality and safety work, Terratunnel Inc. has implemented protocols for the location and prior planning of its underground navigation routes. Before drilling in urban areas, we verify the geo-location of services, water, drainage, other electricity, and fiber optic networks with information provided by city authorities and customers.

We have equipment of 100 thousand pounds for the installation of steel pipes for oil and gas conduction.

(Directional Boring)With this procedure, we install steel sheets or conductive lines under roads for industrial access and residential areas.

(Horizontal Directional Drilling) With this procedure, we install steel sheets or conductive lines through mountains and underneath rivers and lagoons. We utilize wireline technology to get through 60-120 feet of earth and mud motors to drill through rock strata.

We have equipment of 300 thousand pounds for the installation of steel pipes and HDPE for greater and long distances, usually for oil and gas conduction, as well as pressure lines of potable or residual water.

(Maxi Rig - Horizontal Directional Drilling) This is the procedure commonly used for HDD High Ton projects. Normally, we install the conductive lines directly inside the drilling to cross mountains, lagoons, and rivers to maintain the curvature ratio, which is necessary for the size of pipes.

Our services cover studies, engineering, navigation planning, and management of the pipe that will be installed inside the drilling.

Engineering & Prospection Geophysics

At Terratunel Inc. geophysical techniques provide indirect subsurface information. These are interpreted by contrasts or changes in the information acquired in a technical language called anomaly, which is interpreted according to the study objectives and the characteristics of the study area.

Here at Terratunnel, Inc. the construction of tunnels and micro tunnels offers many benefits to the elements built with horizontal directional drilling system. We implement new direct pipe technology that will undoubtedly be used in many structural elements by more and more people. This is because of the great advantages in terms of cost, installation, and functionality of the system since it is especially for large spans and loads. This does not mean it is in full. There are many aspects that must be considered for the realization of construction standards and specifications, and now, we finally have the path delimited by which we must travel.

We can choose from several options for every part of our construction to meet the requirements of the owner and the work itself. The choice depends on the weather, soil, and especially seismic conditions.

Terratunel Inc. uses different building elements in working with foundations to allow transfer of loads to a resistant soil layer when this is such a depth that makes unfeasible technically or economically.

A jacket (metallic tube shuttering mode) which prevents the collapsing excavation is used. Once completed emptying, and as is casting the concrete, pile or micropile, it is gradually removing his shirt, which can be reused again.
